Despite the heat of the Summer,  we at Chabad Hebrew School  have spent hours designing a Hebrew School program that will cater to all of our students, no matter the situation for the upcoming school year.  The program is titled Bringing it Home: Making Judaism come alive through experiential and interactive learning.   

Chabad Hebrew School is prepared for  two tracks:

1. In-Person Hebrew School: Engaging classes following social distancing government guidelines.
   Beginning Sunday, October 18

2. Virtual Hebrew School: Virtual Hebrew School with our live teachers and engaging classes.
   Due to the small size of our Hebrew School and the precautions we are taking we hope to remain open in person throughout the year. In the event a student or teacher is exposed to Covid-19 we will revert to online learning for the two week quarantine period. 

 

Bringing it Home has been developed to ensure that the content is both developmentally appropriate and user-friendly for both settings. The curriculum is scaffolded to cater to each student within three age groups: K-2, 3-5 and 6-7. 

Our curriculum has been designed to be taught through a diverse set of mediums, including drama, construction, STEM, and stop-motion animation. The curriculum comprises seven units, focusing on lessons that are learned from each room of the home. The subjects will come alive as students learn about the Jewish holidays, empathy, respect and integrity amongst other life skills and Jewish values while exploring each room of their house.  

 

We're impressed with our curriculum, now it's your turn! We hope to engage your child's sense of identity by capturing his/her imagination and attention. So, we put a lot of effort into providing our students with substantive lessons and a positive atmosphere.   The lessons are multi-sensory and hands-on, ensuring that the students truly experience what they are being taught. The lessons are structured with discussion-starters, to create a lively, interactive classroom experience. The information truly becomes the student's own. Our Hebrew School uses the new, acclaimed Aleph Champ program to ensure that  your child will read fluently at the end of his/her Hebrew School experience, click here for more info about Aleph Champ.
